Just a doodle about my favorite coffee shop...

We continue the #inktober environmental issues series with the #day19 word: #scorched and for this word I tried to illustrate the Urban Heat Island effect. This takes place in metropolitan areas that are warmer than the rural areas surrounding them. The main cause of the UHI effect is the alteration of land surfaces (concrete and asphalt). Heat waste produced by people and their tools (like vehicles and industry) is another cause and also the decreased amount of vegetation. UHIs often have lower air and water quality that have a negative effect on the environment of these areas. It is also considered to be a possible contribution to global warming. © Maria!Bălan, 2018

Bird study #09 - African Crane. Scratch/scraper board

I don't have this one for sale on anything that I know of. It's just a sketch of a possible positive future. There are too many dystopias. If we all assume things are going to end terribly, it will be a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Tonight is the night of the most metal moon of them all! I hope to draw beneath it and maybe absorb some werewolf powers, fingers crossed!

A blue succulent painting I did a few months back. Part 2 of a series of succulents.

Just a haunted house! The usual

Since folks like the one of Mars, I figured I should upload this one as well. Same concept, but I think the Mars one worked better for the commission.

Pencil Drawing

Created with a black pen on paper.

Sketch was completed in a local coffee shop that also sells cactuses and succulents.

One of a Series of Manager Portraits that was used by the Zero Forty Brewery to promote the events on their social media that focused on the Premier League.

Really happy with the colors on this piece. Trying to start doing more to play with the backgrounds on pieces.

Pen and ink illustration of an old beetle abandoned in the bush!

The observational sketch was done in ink. One of my few urban sketches. The grandeur of the entire cathedral was too large for me to capture in my drawing but here's a little of what I did.
